The Art of Loss

Produktbeschreibung

The title of this collection states the central theme -- the losses that accrue over time. This particular poetic persona deals with these losses: the loss of faith; of loved ones; of innocence -- losses of both a personal, and of a larger, historical nature -- losses that simultaneously deplete and elevate.
